What do handyman services include?

Not everyone has the skills, tools, or time to tackle home maintenance and repairs, which is why handyman services are readily available to book on Airtasker. Save yourself the trouble of pulling a DIY by connecting with a reliable handyman near you. 

Here are some tasks you can request from your Tasker:

General handyman services

Most handymen are all-rounders, ready to take on a bit of everything around the house. When you hire one, you can sort out multiple issues in one fell swoop, from yanking up carpets and hanging doors to swapping out light bulbs.

Indoor installations and repairs

Struggling to install recently purchased homewares? Or perhaps you can’t replace your damaged appliances just yet? Handymen could easily smooth out these minor bumps. They are equipped to assist with tasks like putting up blinds and curtain rods, installing kitchen sinks and pet doors, and even wallpapering.  If you need a home security system installed, you can also book a Tasker to set this up for you.

Outdoor installations and repairs

Your outdoor area goes through the wringer, enduring everything from heavy rains to the mess left behind after playtime. To keep your backyard in tip-top shape, have outdoor items expertly installed or repaired. Seek out a handyman near you who can assist in tasks like putting up your garden shed or clothesline, mending windows, fixing your mower, and fitting outdoor blinds.

Bricklaying and building work

Handyman services can also cover basic home construction, such as bricklaying and building work. If you need a seasoned builder to help you put up garden walls, repair loose brickwork, install MDF, or construct a chicken coop, count on Taskers to handle them for you. For maintenance, you can also book separate services for gardening work or brick cleaning.

Wall hanging

If you need to free up space in the living room or garage, get a handyman to mount your TV or bicycle on the wall. Instead of pulling a DIY, working with a tradesperson for your wall hanging needs ensures your furnishings are level and fitted securely. Taskers can hang picture frames, mirrors, or heavier electrical items like dryers. Having trouble with your electrical wiring? Have it fixed beforehand by booking another service on Airtasker.

Furniture repair

Before having your broken furniture repaired, specify the type of furniture to make sure you get a Tasker whose skills align with your demands. For instance, get a Tasker with carpentry experience to repair your wooden coffee table, wardrobe, or sofa bed. If the issue is electrical work, such as fixing ceiling fans or digital fitness equipment, ensure your handyman is experienced in this area.

Home maintenance

When you have access to home maintenance services near you, it’s easier preserve your place’s top-notch condition. You can count on your local handyman to help with cleaning the gutters, pressure-washing driveways and paths, resealing windows and doors, and sorting out minor roof repairs. Avoid letting small issues turn into expensive problems with regular home maintenance.

Drainage specialist to clear kitchen sink that constantly gets clogged

£150

Wapping, Greater London, E1W

17th May 2025

Our kitchen sink is constantly getting clogged and then water fills the basin and is very slow to clear. Every time we clear it, it gets clogged up again, especially after we use the washing machine. We've had a number of plumbers come and work on it, and we've tried many things ourselves, but we haven't found a permanent fix yet. We've done suctioning/vacuuming, using air pressure/pumping with plungers to clear the pipes, using a snake from ScrewFix, and trying draino made from caustic soda. And lots and lots of vinegar (and sometimes with baking soda). We have a strainer that catches food from going down the sink, so I don't think it's food related. We are also careful not to put oil down the sink. We believe it's somehow related to the washing machine, but unsure how. The problem started not long after we had a new washing machine installed. Anyways, we're looking for an expert drainage specialist with the necessary equipment to see where the the blockage is occurring, help us understand what is causing it, and permanently clearing it and stopping it from occurring again.

Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. Carlton did a fantastic job clearing out our kitchen sink drainage problem that had been plaguing us for weeks. Water is now flowing through the pipes unlike it ever has before for as long as we've lived here. Highly recommended.

Need a kitchen sink drainage specialist for a deep clogged pipe

£100

Tower Hill, Greater London

3rd Mar 2025

I need a kitchen sink drainage specialist who can help us sort out a deep clog. We've already had a plumber come and try to address the problem. However, that only turned out to be a temporary fix, because it came back with a vengeance. It is unclear what is causing the clog, and how far down the pipe the clog is. But we've tried all the typical stuff, pouring chemicals, plungers, vacuums, snakes, etc. Additionally, due to the inability of the pipe to drain, it looks like water has now leaked into the bottom of the dishwasher, and is leaking out onto the kitchen floor as well. When we turned on the laundry machine yesterday, it caused the kitchen sink to overflow. We don't dare try turning on the dishwasher at the moment for fear of making it worse. We've been surviving for now by emptying the water by hand into the hallway bathroom sink. Otherwise, the water level currently doesn't really move. I need someone who specializes in unclogging deep clogs in the undersink piping or in the kitchen walls. And need them to come to the flat ASAP. Jimmy

Marv did a fantastic job. Got here even earlier than expected. Used quite a creative approach to fix the deep clog problem with our kitchen sink – and this is after another plumber came before and tried to fix it (but their solution turned out to only be a temporary fix). Marv was a great communicator, and very effective at getting the job done. Would definitely hire again.
